    Still the greatest

    I recently watched the DVD, having hired it from my local DVD hire shop. The Stones are the greatest rock group ever and this concert shows why. The supporting stars and the backing group does them proud. Nearly two hours of sheer enjoyment and a must to buy.

    I have given this a rating of 5, would have been higher if possible.

    Shame, could have been so good

    Real disappointment this one, plenty of songs you've not really heard of (are these meant to be for the true fans?!). And the sound mix is very odd - this is meant to be live, but there's virtually no sound from the audience, overall the mix just sounds thin.

    Don't request for the 'documentary', it is just a series of recycled interview clips from '60s and '70s, totalling maybe 15-20 minutes, cut in to the main film.

We asked them what it was like to be directed by the equally legendary Martin Scorsese and what were their individual highlights of the film? LOVEFiLM: What was it like working with Martin Scorsese? Like two worlds colliding? Rock and Roll and filmmaking? Mick Jagger: Making the film with Marti, it’ Read more

    • Rolling Stones - Shine A Light - BLU-RAY Version
      The music of the Rolling Stones has lit up the soundtrack to so many Martin Scorsese films ('Gimme Shelter' has appeared in no less than three of his features--GOODFELLAS, CASINO, and THE DEPARTED) that it's little surprise to find the director teaming up with the legendary rockers for this concert ...
